In September last year I reported that Microsoft had started testing a virtual keyboard layout for controllers. This controller-oriented keyboard layout is now out of beta and launching in the latest Insider Release Preview build on Windows 11 24H2 Build 26100.3613. Microsoft says: “We have enabled the Gamepad keyboard layout for the touch keyboard in…
As a horrible person, I was delighted when I found out we were getting another Overboard game. Overboard was a delightfully nasty reverse-murder mystery, a timeloop adventure where each run began with you tossing your screaming husband off a cruise ship. You then had to cover up your crime by framing others, outsmarting a Poirot-wannabe,…
Pocketpair’s survival megahit Palworld received a new update earlier today. Titled the Crossplay Update, its main addition is, unsurprisingly, the ability to farm and shoot the game’s Pokémon-like “Pals” with players from all other platforms. But that’s hardly the only feature the Crossplay Update adds, with this headline addition followed by a flock of smaller…
Hasbro’s stab at a virtual tabletop (VTT) looks to be in deep trouble as over 30 developers working on it have reportedly been laid off. Dubbed Sigil, D&D’s virtual tabletop released in a bit of an unfinished state, one I was a little harsh on. It showed promise, and I had a good time with…
Nvidia has revealed the name and planned launch date of its GPU architecture two generations hence. Give it up for Feynman, named after physicist Richard Feynman, and due out in 2028. Well, it’s due out in AI GPU format in 2028, more on which in a moment. Richard Feynman, of course, won the Nobel prize…
Fallout 76’s Ghoul Update is live as of last night, and while most players are already plotting all sorts of ways to use the new rad-loving character to their advantage, there are a few players who’ve encountered a not-so-fun bug. “Major game-breaking bug with the new ghoul update—please be careful,” Both_Emu_2131 says. They then go…
I remember a time when the only place I saw Monster Hunter games was the 3DS eShop. Those days are well and truly over, because the eShop is fully defunct and Monster Hunter Wilds is effortlessly pulling in over 400,000 players a day on Steam alone, according to Steam Charts and SteamDB. To give you…
For someone who’s been playing The Sims for as long as she can remember, March 28 is a huge deal: EA’s decades-long monopoly over the life sim is ending, as Krafton’s Inzoi enters the ring. It’s the first time The Sims is facing any real sort of competition—Inzoi seems to be gunning to match it…
Assassin’s Creed Shadows drops out of the underbrush soon, and by our own Morgan Park’s account in his review, it’s a solid stealth-action romp. On March 20 (late March 19 in some regions), Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be unlocked for players worldwide—meaning lots of tall things to jump off and gubbins to collect. Whether Shadows…
Technology often has a way of coming full circle—just ask my burgeoning LP collection or the entire VR gaming industry. Things that once were, often will be again (picture that Tim and Eric ‘mind blown’ clip here). I know this, but it never stops me from being surprised when something long-forgotten resurfaces. Something, that is,…
